you must be very young not to remember the invasion of East Timor by the Indonesians.
3 Australian journalists were murdered.
Indonesian armed forces slaughtered countless thousands of East Timorese civilians while Fretelin guerrillas fought in the hills. Husband's left behind wives and families to fight. Censorship was tight but stories seeped out.
20 years of suppression, religious imprisonment, ethnic cleansing and on and on.
Don't you remember the war crime trials? The stories told. The real, very real horror of a nation subject to slow extermination?
I'm not the sick puppy scittyandcross.
